OPI Significant Other Color is a really pretty metallic duochrome that was missing from my collection until I recently saw it at Ulta.

It’s a pink lavender shade that has strong flashes of green/gold. While it’s on the more sheer and light side from what I normally like, I can’t help but love it because of the strong duochrome finish.

The Illamasqua Imperfection Nail Varnish shades came out a couple months ago but it took moving heaven and earth for me to receive them thanks to the Royal Mail!

This collection is all about celebrating imperfections and showing everyone what makes you unique and interesting.

All of these shades are speckled glitters. They all have black micro-glitter and other small black glitter pieces. Some have a bit more than others. They are all just two coats for coverage and the glitter seems to stay where you put it, yahoo!

Revlon Chroma Chameleon is a new limited edition collection which features eight duo and multi-chrome metallic shades.

I had my eyes peeled for these for awhile and finally spotted these five at a Rite Aid near me. They should be at Walgreens/Rite Aid and CVS (and possibly Meijer and Harmon, which we don’t have in the Bay Area).

The three I didn’t get were Aquamarine, Gold and Cobalt.

The formula with these was decent, not perfect. Since they are metallic they tend to be a little brush-stroke-y. Most were just two coats but two I used three.

The Cult Nails Dance All Night Polish Collection is new and features six shades, three of them cremes and three are glitters.

I kind of love how each of the cremes seems to have a glitter that “matches” or goes with it. Obviously you can mix and match to your heart’s content, but I like the idea of pairing them.

Right now the shades are part of a preview sale going on until May 18th 11:59 pm, EST. During the sale you can get them all for $60.00, and afterwards it will be $72.00. The polishes will be for sale individually after the preview sale for $12.00 each.

Nicole by OPI Gumdrops is a new collection including six textured shades.

This limited edition collection features a shimmery sugar-like texture, glittery bits, and a matte finish. Some have more obvious glitter in them, making them stand out. Some have more of that fine sugar or sand like appearance.

The formula was pretty good for all of these. All of these covered nicely with just two coats. They dry quicker than a normal polish and do feel a bit gritty to the touch, as textured polishes will. If you want to keep the matte effect, no top coat!
